Taxonomy: Most generally to be attributed to Laeospira borealis (incl. Spirorbis nautiloides, see Hartman 1959: 597); however, the Serpula spirorbis of authors is confused, see for instance Fleming (1825:245) and at least in part is to be attributed to Vermetidae (Tryon 1886: 251, Bieler 1969: 29)  [details]

Type locality: Atlantic Ocean, Europe [details]
